COVENTRY — Police from three agencies seized 10 pounds of marijuana and growing equipment from a lakeside home Thursday and arrested two residents.

Local officers arrested Linda Dettore, 36, and Jason Blakesley, 37, both of 27 Berry Ave., with help from a regional narcotics task force and the federal Drug Enforcement Administration, police said.

They were charged with possession of more than four ounces of marijuana, cultivation of marijuana, operating a drug factory, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of marijuana with intent to sell, police said.

Each posted $150,000 bail and is scheduled to appear in Superior Court in Rockville Dec. 17.

The 10 pounds of marijuana has an estimated street value of $40,000, police said. In addition to that, officers found 33 marijuana plants and 11 seedlings that were being grown in the basement.
